ASEB through to final:
Dergaon, Dec 20: Defending champions ASEB entered the final of the Assam Club Football Championship defeating Assam Rifles 7-6 in sudden death at Bokakhat on Thursday.
In a keenly contested first semi-final, no team could break the deadlock in the regulation time.
The ASEB midfielders Priyo Kumar Singh and Abuan Gonmei performed superbly and their tactical efforts paid dividends.
Both the players lorded the middle third of the pitch and they not only foiled the Rifles attack, led by Akum Ao at the midfield, but also initiated several well planned moves.
Akum and Omana Autlan tried their hearts out to break the ASEB defence but they were virtually bottled up by Birendra Narzary, Mitradev Swargiary and Suresh Das.
In the highly volatile match, referee Debashis Mazumdar had to book as many as five Assam Rifles and three ASEB players.
For ASEB Kamal Chetry, Zico Zoram Sanga, Abun Gonmei, Parikhit Rabha, Birendra Narzary, Mitradev Swargiary and Suresh Das were the successful shooters in the penalty shootout while for Rifles K Naoba, Singh, P Singh, Ajit Kumar Singh, Santa Singh, Akum Ao and Omana Autlan hit the target.
FCI Guwahati will play OIL in the second semi-final on Friday.
